We'll save at least %40 with compression and de-dup but it does half write speeds with our xeon 5600(200MB/s down to 80MB/s)
What is the write speed of duplicate data?
Shocked! Absolutely shocked I say that people would gladly accept a letter from Santa wizard when offered for free, but question is value if asked to pay for it. I don't see how on earth he came to the determination that people highly valued a Letter from Santa wizard? I call bullshit. Perhaps he asked in a follow up questionnaire. Sure people will respond favourably when there are no strings attached. But I wouldn't pay a dime for that service. 5 minutes with google images & Microsoft word and I have something pretty darn similar.
'most people who want something for free will never, ever think of paying you, no matter how valuable they find your service.'
The flaw with this statement is that pretty much everyone would prefer to have services and goods given to them for free. And while I do enjoy(ed) many free services, some were valuable enough and reasonably priced enough for me to want to upgrade or donate.
Other services just were not valuable enough for me to want to pay for, or there were alternatives that were better, or stayed free, or the licensing terms were so onerous that it just wasn't worth the time and money.
Pile on top of that, there are many many products out there that people will try for free. But after evaluation, they determine it isn't worth a dime to them or even wasting time with the product or service at all. The market place is filled with competitive products people just have no interest in. Why does the author think that free products or services are critically evaluated on a similar basis.
...mammoths turn out to be venomous, highly intelligent, fast, stealthy, have a taste for human flesh and can open doors.
But there is not much profit in telling people that... So, who really are the frauds and/or dunces here?
Wouldn't health insurance agencies & self insured companies stand to save a fortune in providing low cost solutions for expensive health issues?
I think naming such a species could be precluded by the observation that it appears that it would only work in bipeds, or at least in animals that have an extra set of limbs that aren't being used for locomotion or something equally important. there really aren't that many redundant limbs to work with.
Birds don't have a redundant set of limbs, what were their arms have been switched to just be wings. They are now mostly avian bipeds, except for those who have lost the ability to fly such as penguins and ostriches.
We might have had some, except for the whole tool making thing; bats are tree dwelling rats, as long as they could still climb a bit,
That is my point. All we have are examples of animals that are either gliders or have evolved from gliders. Bats didn't evolve their wings for running. Then we have flying squirrels, sugar gliders & "flying" snakes that have all evolved extended skin flaps for extending their gliding distance between trees.
Name one non-raptor based animal that uses flapping or wing like features to increase running or walking speed.
We have all sorts of mammals and snakes that use skin flaps for gliding. Unless we have examples of non-rapture creatures that use skin flaps of some sort to do increase walking/running speed, I would think the answer is obvious.
All I want are inexpensive e-ink displays. There are a lot of things I would like to do, but the ones I've found so far are small and expensive.
If you find a cell phone that doesn't belong to you in a bar and you turn it in to the bar owner,
That isn't as clean cut as you think. I found a wallet in a bar. I gave it to bartender in case the owner of the wallet came looking for it. It turns out the wallet belonged to a friend. We go back to the bar. A different bartender returns the wallet sans a few hundred dollars (my friend is an idiot who can't keep a bank account).
So doing the "right thing," doesn't always mean the right thing happens.
So when are you going to kick out Linux services? I've been waiting since I swapped OSes.
Yup. Constant crashes are what is driving people away from firefox.
So now that officers are going out to the top ten hot spots more often, there will probably be more arrests in those areas. As this new data gets fed into the computer system, it will reinforce and magnify certain preexisting selection criteria.
The computer analysis will always be confirmed to be correct.
So what? Are they trying to white wash the issues?
There's a difference between protesting and rioting/looting. So cheers for tracking down rioters and looters.
It's all fun and games until you send several text messages about events occurring but are not participating in, nor encouraging other people to participate in and suddenly you are on a watch list.
